I really liked the concept of this book, and I loved some of the stories. However, the author attempted too much expanse of time and space and character, so it was hard to hold on to any one storyline emotionally. I wished for a whole novel from the ...more

I read this book in college in an American literature course and I remember loving it… But it is so new to me here, 30 years later. I love the many ways that reality and story are questioned here. I am not surprised that many of the one star reviews ...more

Quotes by Sarah Hahn Campbell  (?)

“That’s when I realized I’d fallen in love with you. You, professor. It was never just that you were a woman. It was that you were you, even exasperating you with your self-denial and your humor that masked your true feelings, even confusing you in your generic faculty house. I wanted you, your laughter, your brilliance, your deep-brown eyes, the you of the day on Highway 9.”
Sarah Brooks, The Beginning of Us

“Maybe we should have thought it strange for a student and her professor to go on a road trip, but you are only eight years older than I am, and you so often seem younger, even with all those acronyms after your name. Especially when you drove down Highway 9 in your red Mazda Miata with the top down, singing to Janis Joplin at the top of your lungs. I swear you didn’t care where we were going. You just loved the wind and the road, the sensation that we were moving somewhere.”
Sarah Brooks, The Beginning of Us

“You said you fell in love with Iowa as you fell in love with me, but maybe we were always the same thing. I grew from this soil, after all.”
Sarah Brooks, The Beginning of Us

“I stuck out my hand and you shook it, and your hand was so small and delicate, a surprising hand for someone who seemed to fill the room.”
Sarah Brooks, The Beginning of Us

“My powerlessness overwhelms me. I don’t know where to find you, how to reach you, how to understand you. All I can do is write to you here. If I keep talking to you here, you’re not gone. I can imagine you’re listening.”
Sarah Brooks, The Beginning of Us
